Jitterbug flip phones — simplicity reimagined
GreatCall’s Jitterbug Flip blends tactile familiarity with modern safety features: oversized buttons, a bright display and a dedicated emergency button that links to Urgent Response. Designed for customers who prefer a straightforward handset, the phone emphasizes sound clarity, one-touch dialing and an interface pared down to essentials — plus affordable monthly plans that bundle voice, text and safety services.
Wearable alert pendants and fall detection
GreatCall’s wearable pendants and clip-on devices prioritize discreet protection. Lightweight designs include automatic fall detection and a prominent help button that summons trained agents. Devices pair with cellular-connected plans so users remain protected away from home; caregivers can manage accounts and access location details for fast, informed response in an emergency.
